The proposed automatic tickets for some PDP elected public officials in the 2015 elections appear doomed in Rivers State,according to indications yesterday.

The Chairman, Board of Trustees (BoT) of the party, Chief Antony Anenih, had last week advocated automatic tickets for President Goodluck Jonathan and those he called ‘performing’ first term governors and legislators with a view to averting rancour in the build up to the elections.

But speaking yesterday, factional state chairman of the PDP, Chief Felix Obuah, said the fate of every aspirant would be determined by delegates at the primaries.

He declared that there would be neither imposition of candidates nor intimidation of aspirants.

Obuah, who spoke on the phone from Abuja, also admonished members of the PDP and all lovers of democracy to always give peace a chance and avoid heating up the polity.

He said the party’s door is wide open to every Nigerian wishing to come on board.

He said the 2011 governorship candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) in Rivers State, Dr. Abiye Sekibo, and his counterpart of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Sir Celestine Omehia, would be welcomed in the PDP.

According to him, the party is ready to welcome them, having left some years back after feeling aggrieved.

Sekibo, a former Transport Minister, who hails from Okrika, the headquarters of Okrika Local Government Area of Rivers State, and Omehia, a cousin of the Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, who both hail from Ubima in Ikwerre LGA of the state, alleged massive rigging during the 2011 governorship election.

Obuah said: “If Dr. Abiye Sekibo, Sir Celestine Omehia and others return to the PDP, they will be allowed to vie. But there will be no automatic ticket for anybody. We will ensure a level playing field. No favouritism. Everybody will be given equal opportunity.”
